boys are stupid

I've been saying it and saying it and now we have proof -- boys have absolutely nothing going on upstairs.


UPDATE -- Boys overcompensate for their stupidity by using obtuse and awkwardly formal language:

Dear Betch,

As an avid reader of your blog, I had to sit down and pen this letter to you this morning. I watched the NBC SNL clip you linked at your website, and I must propose that it, rather than its target, is the stupidest thing since the 9th sequel to the Land Before Time. (Seriously, the series totally peaked at Land Before Time VI: The Secret of Saurus Rock.)

That 3 minute tax on my free time this morning conclusively proves that Saturday Night Live is the United Nations of comedy shows: an official brand that is tragically impotent in its field. Compared with that sketch, there is deeper and more meaningful satire of today's society in a 20-second GEICO spot featuring faux cavemen.

That is not to say there is not merit to your central thesis regarding Y chromosomes and crippling obtuseness. Quite the contrary; however, unless we could show that this SNL skit was inspired by a room full of male writers fueled by beef jerky washed down with Pabst Blue Ribbon, I do not believe it tells your story convincingly.

Sincerely,
An Armchair Blogger
